SSAS cube backup Strategies There are different ways to take Cube database backups.SQL Agent JobXMLA script for backupROBOT jobASCMD commandSSIS PackageSSIS packageAMO (Analysis Management Objects)PowerShell ScriptsI feel AMO (Analysis Management Objects) does our job much easier and different ways of taking backup is explained below. I’ve executed the Power Shell scripts from my local PC which connects to remote server and place the backup files (*.abf) on its corresponding backup folder (Default location For eg:- F:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\OLAP\Backup\ + Servername). Pre-requisitesLoad modules if it’s not loaded automatically. Please refer my previous postCreate a folder with a same name as that of server in a default backup locationFor example -F:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\OLAP\Backup\AQBIPT01\Default location - F:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\OLAP\BackupFolder Created Manually – AQBIPT01This is continuation of my previous post. do a complete testing on any of your test server.Logical Flow First Method: Cube Database IterationThe database cube names are listed in c:\SSAS\CubeList.txt file and PowerShell script and traverse through each cube database for backup.CubeList.txt contains the following the cube databasesABCDEFGHIPS C:\SSAS> .\SSAS1.PS1 <ServerName>PS C:\SSAS> .\SSAS1.PS1 AQBIPT01Copy and Paste code into
